Roe Kapara has released a brand new song, “The Dead Come Talking” today along with a surreal visual. The eerie stop-motion visual is reminiscent of a Tim Burton movie mixed with Coraline. Kapara has a knack for the macabre, fully engrossing his entire creative endeavor with haunting imagery. Up until now, we have seen this through his ability to nail the Kubrick stare, somehow inviting in and warding off his audience all at the same time. However, Roe Kapara approaches “The Dead Come Talking” with a new form of creepy homage. He continues to expand the universe he has crafted,… Read more »
The perfect concept record is hard to find. It should tell a story, take listeners to a new and exciting world, and remain authentic to the band’s sound and identity.

Ahead of her soon-to-be-iconic performance supporting Iggy Pop in Las Vegas at The Pearl Theatre on April 29, Grace McKagan has issued a music video for her hypnotizing “Call Me Back (When I’m Dead).” Highlighted by a sensational bassline and McKagan’s 60s meets early aughts style of rock ‘n’ roll/pop-punk/alt-pop vocal fusion, “Call Me Back (When I’m Dead)” feels like it houses an old soul of its own. The visual for the recently released track complements its memorizing vibe, mixing close-up shoots of McKagan with blurry overlays that capture the somber yet introspective nature of the tune. Lyrically, “Call Me… Read more »
